Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft Verfahren und Testbestecks zur Bestimmung neuroregulatorischer gesundheitlicher Störungen und insbesondere die Messung von Neurotransmittern, vor allem von biogenen Aminen, in Zellen aus Patientenblut, Thrombozyten und/oder Lymphozyten (PBMC = Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells/mononukleäre Zellen des peripheren Blutes) zur Feststellung von Neuroregulationsstörungen und psychischen Erkrankungen. Dabei dienen die Blutzellen als Surrogat für die synaptische Neurotransmitterfunktion im (zentralen) Nervensystem.The invention relates to methods and test sets for the determination of neuroregulatory disorders and in particular the measurement of neurotransmitters, especially of biogenic amines, in cells from patient blood, platelets and / or lymphocytes (PBMC = Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells / peripheral blood mononuclear cells) for detection of neuroregulatory disorders and mental illness. The blood cells serve as a surrogate for the synaptic neurotransmitter function in the (central) nervous system.
Zu diesen Störungen/Erkrankungen gehören alle Formen von Neurostress, etwa das Bum-Out-Syndrom, das Chronische Müdigkeitssyndrom (Chronic Fatigue Syndrom – CFS), die zentrale Fatigue (Erschöpfung), Schlafstörungen/Insomnie, Fibromyalgie (FMS), MCS – die multiple Chemikalienüberempfindlichkeit (multiple chemical sensitivity), Migräne, Depressionen, PTSD (Post-Traumatische Stresserkrankung) oder die Winter-/Frühjahrsdepresssion, auch das PMS/Prämestruelle Syndrom, Menopausebeschwerden, Parkinsonsyndrom, RLS/Restless Legs Syndrom (Wittmaack-Ekbom-Syndrom der ”ruhelosen Beine”, eine neurologische Erkrankung mit Gefühlsstörungen und unwillkürlichen Bewegungen in den Beinen), ADS/ADHS (Aufinerksamkeits-Defizit/Hyperaktivitäts-Syndrom), Autismus, Bulimie, Anorexie, Reizdarmsyndrom (
Patienten mit dem Beschwerdebild einer multiplen Chemikalienüberempfindlichkeit (multiple chemical sensitivity – MCS) etwa zeigen bei geringer Chemikalienexposition ein obligates systemisches Beschwerdebild. Die betroffenen Personen klagen über Gedächtnisstörungen, Schwäche, Schwindel, Kopfschmerzen, Schweißausbrüche, Atemnot, Zittern, Gelenk- und Muskelschmerzen o. ä.. Die Reaktion wird durch verschiedenste Substanzen (z. B. Autoabgase, Parfüme, Farben, Lacke, Holzschutzmittel) ausgelöst, meist unabhängig von deren chemischer Struktur und bei sehr niedrigen Konzentrationen, die normalerweise auf den Menschen keine subjektiv wahrnehmbaren Auswirkungen haben.Patients with multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS) symptoms, for example, show an obligatory systemic complaint with low exposure to chemicals. The affected persons complain of memory disorders, weakness, dizziness, headache, sweating, shortness of breath, tremors, joint and muscle pain, etc. The reaction is triggered by a variety of substances (eg car exhaust, perfumes, paints, lacquers, wood preservatives) , mostly independent of their chemical structure and at very low concentrations, which normally have no subjective perceptible effects on humans.
Diese ungewöhnlichen Reaktionen wurden im Laufe der letzten 20 Jahre mit Begriffen wie Sick Building Syndrom (SBS), Enviromental somatisation syndrome, Building related illness o. ä. umschrieben. Weder sind bis heute die Ursachen dieses Krankheitsbildes bekannt, noch gibt es gesicherte diagnostische Parameter dafür. In der Regel lassen sich bei den betroffenen Personen keine erhöhten Chemikalienspiegel nachweisen. Es sind weder neurologische oder internistische Auffälligkeiten feststellbar; die klassischen Laborparameter sind ebenfalls normal. Ebenso wenig gibt es Anhaltspunkte dafür, dass allergische Reaktionen eine Rolle spielen. Immer wieder diskutiert wurde u. a. eine Hyperreaktivität des Immunsystems als Ursache dieses Krankheitsbildes, wobei bisher keine experimentellen oder klinischen Anhaltspunkte für diese Hypothese aufgezeigt werden konnten (
Das Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) ist ein klinisch definiertes Krankheitsbild, das durch schwere, lähmende Erschöpfung mit mehr als 50% Einschränkung der normalen Leistungsfähigkeit und eine Kombination von Symptomen charakterisiert wird, bei denen Konzentrationsschwäche und Merkfähigkeitsstörung, Schlafstörungen, Muskel- und Gliederschmerzen im Vordergrund stehen (
In der Patentliteratur ist die Diagnose von Krankheiten wie CFS mehrfach beschrieben worden. So wird gemäß der Offenlegungsschrift
Weiterhin wird in der Patentliteratur über die Bestimmung eines etwa 30 kDa großen Rnase-L-Moleküls berichtet (
Auch die Bestimmung eines (seinerzeit neuen) CFIDS(Chronic Fatigue Immunodysfunction Syndrome)-Virus wurde zur Diagnose von CFIDS vorgeschlagen (
Zu den wichtigsten Mediatoren der pathologischen Stress-Antwort wird das inflammatorische Zytokin IL1 gerechnet (Konsman et al, Trends Neurosci 25: 154–159, 2002; Koo JW, Duman RS. IL-1β is an essential mediator of the antineurogenic and anhedonic effects of stress. Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 2008; 105:751–56). Es besteht demnach ein neuroendokrin-immunologischer Regelkreis: Nervenzellen weisen Rezeptoren für Zytokine wie IL-1 oder TNF-alpha auf, und umgekehrt verfügen Immunzellen über Rezeptoren für biogene Amine wie Adrenalin, Noradrenalin, Dopamin oder Serotonin (
In zahlreichen Publikationen sind wiederholt Zusammenhänge zwischen Fatigue, CFS, FMS, MCS (Abkürzungsverzeichnis hinter den Beispielen) und anderen umweltassoziierten Gesundheitsstörungen sowie pathologischen Veränderungen der Neurostresshormone CRH (Corticotropin-Relasing Hormon), Cortisol, DHEAS, Prolactin, Wachstumshormon, Melatonin und der Neurotransmitter Katecholamine, Serotonin, PEA beschrieben worden (
Der Zusammenhang zwischen Stress, Depression, Motivation, Kognition, Aufmerksamkeit, Schlaf, Ängsten, Appetitverhalten, Energiestoffwechsel, Schmerzempfindungen einerseits und neuroendokrinen Regelmechanismen andererseits ist Gegenstand intensiver Forschung. Hypercortisolismus gilt als das zentrale biochemische Kriterium der primären Depression (Majordepression), Bum-Out als pathologische Spätmanifestation des chronischen Stress (
Zentrale Fatigue gilt als Hauptkriterium des CFS und zahlreicher durch Aktivierung proinflammatorischer Mechanismen geprägter Erkrankungen wie chronische Infektionen, Autoimmunerkrankungen, Tumoren, umwelttoxische Syndrome oder Folge von Therapie mit proinflammatorischen Zytokinen und Mediatoren (
Der Zusammenhang zwischen Stress, neuroendokrinen Reaktionen und Inflammation wird als zentrales Element der genannten Krankheitsprozesse gesehen (
Eine Aktivierung der neuroendokrinen Achse führt zur Aktivierung der Neurotransmitter, insbesondere der biogenen Amine – und umgekehrt. Synthese, Abbau und Aktion auf Rezeptorebene sind bei den Neurotransmittern eng miteinander vernetzt (
Unter ”psychischen Störungen” werden im Rahmen dieser Erfindung verstanden: Verwirrungszustände, Depressionen, bipolare Depressionen, Schizophrenie; Alkohol-, Nikotin- oder Drogenabhängigkeit; Sozialphobie, Panikstörungen, Angststörungen oder Zwangsstörungen (s. a. Internationale Klassifikation psychischer Störungen – International Classification of Diseases ICD 10), Appetitstörungen, Aufmerksamkeitsstörungen.For the purposes of the present invention, "mental disorders" are confusion states of confusion, depression, bipolar depression, schizophrenia; Alcohol, nicotine or drug addiction; Social phobia, panic disorders, anxiety disorders or obsessive-compulsive disorder (see also International Classification of Diseases ICD 10), Appetite Disorders, Attention Deficit Disorders.
”NeuroStress” ist ein zunehmend gebräuchlicher Sammelbegriff für psychische und psychovegetative Gesundheitsstörungen, die sich bei übermäßiger Stressbelastung (Intensität bzw. Dauer) entwickeln, wobei die individuelle Disposition (Belastbarkeit) mit entscheidend für das Ausmaß der Störungen ist. Individuell disponierende Faktoren sind genetische Varianten von Enzymen, Rezeptoren, Transportern, Umweltfaktoren, Ernährung, etc. und einschneidende traumatische Erfahrungen."NeuroStress" is an increasingly common collective term for mental and psycho-vegetative health disorders that develop with excessive stress (intensity or duration), with the individual disposition (resilience) is crucial for the extent of the disorders. Individually predisposing factors are genetic variants of enzymes, receptors, transporters, environmental factors, nutrition, etc., and far-reaching traumatic experiences.
Zu den psychischen Störungen, die weniger durch Dauerbelastung als durch akute traumatische Belastungen ausgelöst werden, zählt das PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder), das z. B. nach Unfällen, schweren Verletzungen, Verlust von Angehörigen oder nach Kriegserlebnissen (”Golfkriegs-Syndrom”) auftreten kann und durch eine Insuffizienz der neuroregulatorischen Hormon- und Nervensysteme gekennzeichnet ist (
”Migräne” ist eine Erkrankung mit familiärer Häufung, die bis zu 18% der Frauen und 6% der Männer, vorwiegend im Alter zwischen 30 und 50 Jahren, trifft. Störungen des serotoninergen Systems sind ursächlich (
Das ”posttraumatische Stresssyndrom” (PTSD: ”Post traumatic Stress Disorder”) ist durch gravierende Störungen der HPT-HVL-NNR-Achse (HPT-HVL-NNR: Hypothalamus-Hypophysen-Nebennierenrinden-Achse) gekennzeichnet, die sich als Hypoaktivität von CRH-ACTH-Cortisol (ACTH: adrenocorticotropes Hormon) und Einschränkung der exzitatorischen Neurotransmission mit verminderten Katecholaminen und Serotoninmangel manifestiert. Die inflammatorische Aktivität ist erhöht.Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is characterized by severe disturbances of the HPT-HVL-NNR axis (HPT-HVL-NNR: hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical axis), which is called hypoactivity of CRH -ACTH-Cortisol (ACTH: adrenocorticotropic hormone) and limitation of excitatory neurotransmission manifested with decreased catecholamines and serotonin deficiency. The inflammatory activity is increased.
Der Nachteil bisheriger Lösungen liegt darin, dass es sich um vorwiegend deskriptive Diagnoseverfahren handelt, die keine charakteristischen neurophysiologischen Kriterien liefern.The disadvantage of previous solutions is that they are predominantly descriptive diagnostic methods that do not provide any characteristic neurophysiological criteria.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, die Nachteile der bekannten Lösungen zu beseitigen und neue Möglichkeiten zur Diagnose von neuroregulatorischen gesundheitlichen Störungen, insbesondere von Neurotransmitter-Ungleichgewichten des neuroregulatorischen Regelkreises, bereitzustellen.The invention has for its object to eliminate the disadvantages of the known solutions and to provide new possibilities for the diagnosis of neuroregulatory health disorders, in particular neurotransmitter imbalances of the neuroregulatory control loop.
Die Aufgabe wurde dadurch gelöst, dass Verfahren entwickelt wurden, denen der Nachweis von Neurotransmittern und insbesondere von biogenen Aminen in Blutzellen zugrunde liegt. Die erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren zur Bestimmung von neuroregulatorischen gesundheitlichen Störungen bestehen darin, dass Neurotransmitter – wie Katecholamine (Adrenalin, Noradrenalin, Dopamin) oder Serotonin – in Thrombozyten oder in PBMC aus Patientenblut mit Hilfe von Immunoassays und/oder Anordnungen für die Flüssigkeitschromatographie gemessen werden.The object has been achieved by developing methods based on the detection of neurotransmitters and in particular of biogenic amines in blood cells. The methods of the invention for the determination of neuroregulatory disorders are to measure neurotransmitters - such as catecholamines (adrenaline, norepinephrine, dopamine) or serotonin - in platelets or in PBMC from patient blood using immunoassays and / or liquid chromatographic arrangements.
Als PBMC (Peripheral Blond Mononuclear Cells – mononukleare Zellen des peripheren Blutes) werden einkernige Blutzellen mit einem runden Zellkern bezeichnet, zum Beispiel Lymphozyten und Monozyten (
Die erfindungsgemäßen Testbestecks dienen der Analyse und Erforschung von Neurostresszuständen durch Bestimmung von Neurotransmittern und insbesondere von biogenen Aminen in Thrombozyten oder PBMC. Sie bestehen aus Immunoassays und/oder Anordnungen für die Flüssigkeitschromatographie/HPLC. Diese Testkits stellen Analysekits für medizinische und veterinärmedizinische Zwecke dar. Sie bestehen aus biochemischen Reagenzien für die Analyse von Neurostresszuständen aufgrund von Neuroregulationsstörungen mit Stresshormon- und/oder Neurotransmitter-Defiziten, -Überschüssen bzw. -Störungen des neuroregulatorischen Gleichgewichts. Sie bestehen in ELISA (Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assays)-Tests, Chemolumineszenztests, Durchflusszytometrieassays oder in chromatographischen Nachweisverfahren (HPLC – High Pressure Liquid Chromatographie, LC-MSMS – Liquid Chromatographie mit Massenspektrometerdetektion in zwei Schritten) zum Nachweis von Neurotransmittern in Thrombozyten oder PBMC, bedarfsweise zusammen mit der Bestimmung von Stresshormonen oder proentzündlichen Zytokinen (Interleukin-1, Interleukin-6 oder Tumor-Nekrosefaktor-alpha) im Speichel.The test kits according to the invention serve the analysis and investigation of neurostress conditions by determination of neurotransmitters and in particular of biogenic amines in platelets or PBMC. They consist of immunoassays and / or arrangements for liquid chromatography / HPLC. These test kits are kits for medical and veterinary purposes. They consist of biochemical reagents for the analysis of neurostress conditions due to neuroregulation disorders with stressor hormone and / or neurotransmitter deficits, excesses or neuroregulatory balance disorders. They are available in ELISA (Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assays) assays, chemiluminescent assays, flow cytometry assays, or in high-pressure liquid chromatography (LC-MSMS) for the detection of platelet or PBMC neurotransmitters, as needed together with the determination of stress hormones or pro-inflammatory cytokines (interleukin-1, interleukin-6 or tumor necrosis factor-alpha) in saliva.
Überraschenderweise hat sich herausgestellt, dass durch den Nachweis von biogenen Aminen und anderen Neurotransmittern in Blutzellen Rückschlüsse auf Art und Ausmaß neuroregulatorischer Störungen des neurovegetativen Regulationsgleichgewichts und die damit verbundenen Erkrankungen möglich sind. Es überrascht ferner, dass die Messung der Konzentrationen biogener Amine sowie anderer Neurotransmitter in Blutzellen zur Feststellung von Neuroregulationsstörungen und psychischen Erkrankungen zu verwenden sind, wobei Thrombozyten oder PBMC als Surrogat für die synaptischen Neurotransmitter-Funktionseinheiten im Nervensystem dienen.Surprisingly, it has been found that the detection of biogenic amines and other neurotransmitters in blood cells makes it possible to draw conclusions about the nature and extent of neuroregulatory disorders of the neurovegetative regulatory equilibrium and the associated diseases. It is further surprising that the measurement of the concentrations of biogenic amines and other neurotransmitters in blood cells are to be used to detect neuroregulatory disorders and mental illnesses, where platelets or PBMC serve as a surrogate for the synaptic neurotransmitter functional units in the nervous system.
Neurone (serotoninerge, katecholaminerge Neurone) bilden intraneuronal Neurotransmitter (Katecholamine, Serotonin, etc), speichern diese in Vesikeln und schütten sie bei Bedarf als Signalstoff an der Synapse aus. Überschüssige NT (Neurotransmitter) werden durch einen spezifischen Transporter in der synaptischen Membran wieder in das Neuron rückresorbiert, wo sie entweder abgebaut oder erneut in Vesikeln gespeichert und wiederverwendet werden. Dieser Reuptake-Transporter von Thrombozyten, Lymphozyten und Synapse ist identisch, was u. a. für Serotonin und die Katecholamine (Dopamin, Noradrenalin, Adreanlin) gezeigt wurde (
In Lymphozyten wurde bisher vorwiegend die Funktion der Neurotransmitter-Transporter bei verschiedenen neuropsychiatrischen Störungen untersucht (
Erfindungsgemäß werden Messungen von Konzentrationen biogener Amine (Serotonin, Noradrenalin, Adrenalin, Dopamin) in Thrombozyten oder PBMC aus Patientenblut vorgenommen.According to the invention, measurements are made of concentrations of biogenic amines (serotonin, norepinephrine, adrenaline, dopamine) in platelets or PBMC from patient's blood.
Die erfindungsgemäßen Testbestecks eignen sich zur Bestimmung von neuroregulatorischen und psychischen Störungen und damit von Neurostresszuständen und allen anderen Störungen der neuroendokrinen Stressachse. The test kits according to the invention are suitable for the determination of neuroregulatory and mental disorders and thus of neurostress conditions and all other disorders of the neuroendocrine stress axis.
Diese Testbestecks bestehen aus mindestens einem antikoagulierten Blutröhrchen, vorzugsweise mit Citrat oder EDTA bzw. Heparinat (Na-, Li- oder NH4-Heparinat) als Antikoagulans, Probenahme-Anleitung, Etiketten, Versandbesteck, standardisiertem Anamnese- und Untersuchungsbogen sowie den für die Immunoassay-Verfahren (ELISA-, FIA- oder CLIA; FIA – Fluorenszenzimmunoassay, CLIA – Chemolumineszenz-Immunoassay), Durchflusszytometrie oder chromatographischen Verfahren (HPLC- bzw. LC-MSMS oder LCMS – Liquid Chromatography mit Doppel- oder Einfach-Massenspektrometer-Detektion) benötigten spezifischen Kontrollen.These test sets consist of at least one anticoagulated blood tube, preferably with citrate or EDTA or heparinate (Na, Li or NH4 heparinate) as anticoagulant, sampling instructions, labels, shipping kit, standardized anamnesis and examination sheet, as well as those for immunoassay. Procedures (ELISA, FIA or CLIA, FIA - fluorescence immunoassay, CLIA - chemiluminescent immunoassay), flow cytometry or chromatographic methods (HPLC or LC-MSMS or LCMS - Liquid Chromatography with dual or single mass spectrometer detection) required specific controls.
Die Patienten-Thrombozyten werden aus dem antikoagulierten Blut durch low-speed Zentrifugation angereichert (s. Beispiel 1), das so gewonnene Plättchen-reiche Plasma (PRP: Platelet-rich Plasma) anschließend bei höherer Geschwindigkeit zentrifugiert, mit Detergens- und EGTA-haltigem (EGTA – ethylene glycol tetraacetic acid) Puffer gewaschen, erneut zentrifugiert und im Counter die Plättchenzahl gemessen. Nach Einstellung auf 2–5 × 108 Zellen/ml wird die Suspension fraktioniert bis zur Messung eingefroren. Alternativ wird das PRP nach Zugabe monoklonaler Antikörper (mAb) gegen die einzelnen biogenen Amine im Durchflusszytometer gemessen.The patient platelets are enriched from the anticoagulated blood by low-speed centrifugation (see Example 1), the platelet-rich plasma (PRP) thus subsequently centrifuged at higher speed, with detergent and EGTA-containing (EGTA - ethylene glycol tetraacetic acid) buffer, centrifuged again and the number of platelets measured in the counter. After adjustment to 2-5 × 10 8 cells / ml, the suspension is fractionally frozen until the measurement. Alternatively, after addition of monoclonal antibodies (mAb) to the individual biogenic amines, the PRP is measured in a flow cytometer.
Die Patienten-PBMC werden aus antikoaguliertem Blut mittels Zentrifugation im Ficoll-Hypaque Gradienten isoliert, in isotonischem BSA/HEPES-Puffer (BSA – Rinder-Serum-Albumin, Bovine serum abumin; HEPES – N-[2-hydroxyethyl]piperazine-N'-[2-ethanesulfonic acid]) gewaschen und im Counter gezählt (s. Beispiel 2). Nach Einstellung auf 0,5–1,0 × 107 Zellen/ml wird die Zellsuspension fraktioniert bis zur Messung eingeforen. Alternativ werden die intrazellulären biogenen Amine mittels Durchflusszytometrie bestimmt.Patient PBMC are isolated from anticoagulated blood by Ficoll-Hypaque gradient centrifugation in isotonic BSA / HEPES buffer (BSA - bovine serum albumin, bovine serum abumin; HEPES - N- [2-hydroxyethyl] piperazine-N '). - [2-ethanesulfonic acid]) and counted in the counter (see Example 2). After adjustment to 0.5-1.0 x 10 7 cells / ml, the cell suspension is fractionally frozen until the measurement. Alternatively, the intracellular biogenic amines are determined by flow cytometry.
Die Messung der Neurotransmitter erfolgt mittels Enzymimmunoassay, alternativ mittels HPLC nach Proteinfällung und Derivatisierung oder nach Addition von monoklonalem Antikörper und sekundärem Fluoreszenz-markierten mAb mittels Durchflusszytometer.The measurement of the neurotransmitters takes place by means of enzyme immunoassay, alternatively by means of HPLC after protein precipitation and derivatization or after addition of monoclonal antibody and secondary fluorescence-labeled mAb by means of a flow cytometer.

Die Merkmale der Erfindung gehen aus den Elementen der Ansprüche und aus der Beschreibung hervor, wobei sowohl einzelne Merkmale als auch mehrere in Form von Kombinationen vorteilhafte Ausführungen darstellen, für die mit dieser Schrift Schutz beantragt wird. Das Wesen der Erfindung besteht in einer Kombination aus bekannten (Bestimmung einzelner biogener Amine) und neuen Elementen (ihre kombinierte Messung in Zellen), die sich gegenseitig beeinflussen und in ihrer neuen Gesamtwirkung einen Gebrauchsvorteil und den erstrebten Erfolg ergeben, der darin liegt, dass erstmals eine neurochemische Diagnose von neuroregulatorischen und psychische Störungen – im Unterschied zur Ausschlussdiagnostik – bereitgestellt wird. Damit ist ein Nachweisverfahren gefunden worden, mit dem Neurotransmitter-Störungen und damit verbundene Neuroregulations-Störungen biochemisch verifiziert und dann spezifisch behandelt werden können.The features of the invention will become apparent from the elements of the claims and from the description, wherein both individual features and several represent advantageous embodiments in the form of combinations for which protection is sought with this document.

Die Erfindung soll anhand von Ausführungsbeispielen erläutert werden, ohne auf diese Beispiele beschränkt zu sein.The invention will be explained with reference to embodiments, without being limited to these examples.

Beispiel 1: Anreicherung der Patienten-ThrombozytenExample 1: Enrichment of patient platelets
Die Patienten-Thrombozyten werden aus dem antikoagulierten Blut durch low-speed Zentrifugation angereichert (1000 rpm, 15 min), das so gewonnene Plättchen-reiche Plasma (PRP: Platelet-rich Plasma) anschließend bei höherer Geschwindigkeit zentrifugiert (3600 rpm, 15 min), mit low-dose Detergens-(Triton X-100), L-Cystein- und EGTA-haltigem Puffer (EGTA = ethylene glycol tetraacetic acid) gewaschen, erneut zentrifugiert, in Cystein-HEPES-Puffer aufgenommen und im Counter (Zellzählautomat, Coulter Counter) die Plättchenzahl gemessen. Nach Einstellung auf 2–5 × 108 Zellen/ml wird die Plättchen-Suspension in Cysteinpuffer mit TCA (Trichloressigsäure) präzipitiert, zentrifugiert und fraktioniert bis zur Messung eingefroren. Alternativ wird das PRP mit Paraformaldehyd in PBS (Phosphate-buffered Saline) 30 min fixiert, mit Detergens (Triton X-100) permeabilisiert, in HEPES-Puffer gewaschen, zentrifugiert (500 g, 5 min) und monoklonaler Antikörper (mAb) gegen die einzelnen biogenen Amine zugegeben. Nach erneutem Waschen und Zentrifugieren wird ein zweiter Fluoereszenz-markierter mAb zugegeben und die Messung der Plättchen-gebundenen Fluoreszenz im Durchflusszytometer durchgeführt.The patient platelets are enriched from the anticoagulated blood by low-speed centrifugation (1000 rpm, 15 min), the platelet-rich plasma (PRP: Platelet-rich plasma) thus obtained is then centrifuged at higher speed (3600 rpm, 15 min). , washed with low-dose detergent (Triton X-100), L-cysteine and EGTA-containing buffer (EGTA = ethylene glycol tetraacetic acid), centrifuged again, taken up in cysteine HEPES buffer and counter (cell counter, Coulter Counter) measured the number of platelets. After adjustment to 2-5 x 10 8 cells / ml, the platelet suspension is precipitated in cysteine buffer with TCA (trichloroacetic acid), centrifuged and fractionated frozen until measurement. Alternatively, the PRP is fixed with paraformaldehyde in PBS (Phosphate-buffered Saline) for 30 min, permeabilized with detergent (Triton X-100), washed in HEPES buffer, centrifuged (500 g, 5 min) and monoclonal antibody (mAb) against the added to individual biogenic amines. After washing again and centrifuging, a second fluorescence-labeled mAb is added and the measurement of platelet-bound fluorescence is performed in the flow cytometer.

Die Patienten-PBMC werden aus dem antikoagulierten Blut mittels Zentrifugation im Ficoll-Hypaque Gradienten isoliert, in isotonischem BSA/HEPES-Puffer gewaschen und im Counter gezählt. Nach Einstellung auf 0,5–1,0 × 107 Zellen/ml wird die Zellsuspension im Detergens/Cystein/EGTA-Puffer mit TCA päzipitiert, erneut zentrifugiert und fraktioniert bis zur Messung eingeforen. Alternativ werden die intrazellulären biogenen Amine mittels Durchflusszytometrie bestimmt. Die gewaschenen PBMC werden mit Paraformaldehyd fixiert, mit Detergens permeabilisiert und mit Anti-Neurotransmitter-Antikörper inkubiert. Anschließend werden die markierten PBMC gewaschen, mit sekundärem fluoreszierendem mAb markiert und im Durchflusszytometer gemessen.The patient PBMC are isolated from the anticoagulated blood by centrifugation in Ficoll-Hypaque gradient, washed in isotonic BSA / HEPES buffer and counted in the counter. After adjusting to 0.5-1.0 x 10 7 cells / ml, the cell suspension in the detergent / cysteine / EGTA buffer is precipitated with TCA, recentrifuged and fractionated until frozen. Alternatively, the intracellular biogenic amines are determined by flow cytometry. The washed PBMC are fixed with paraformaldehyde, permeabilized with detergent and incubated with anti-neurotransmitter antibody. Subsequently, the labeled PBMC are washed, labeled with secondary fluorescent mAb and measured by flow cytometer.
